Bishop Salmon to Lead Nashotah House

June 27, 2011

The Rt. Rev. Edward L. Salmon, Jr., is the new dean and president of Nashotah House Theological Seminary, and will arrive on campus in mid-August.

Bishop Salmon, a member of Nashotah’s board of trustees since 1993 and its chairman since 1996, said the board elected him in late May, when it announced the resignation of the Very Rev. Robert S. Munday.

Dean Munday’s resignation takes effect June 30, but he will remain on Nashotah’s faculty as research professor of theology and mission. He was dean and president of Nashotah House for 10 years.

Salmon, Bishop of South Carolina from 1990 to 2007, will leave his current position as rector of All Saints Church, Chevy Chase, Md. He told The Living Church that he expects to arrive at the seminary by Aug. 23. the rest
